Intel Q8200
ASUS P5Q
2x2GB DDR2 800MHz Transcend RAM
WD Caviar SE16 640GB HDD
Palit HD4850 512MB GDDR3
Zebronics Bijli cabinet
CoolerMaster EP 500W PSU
Dell 198WFP 19" LCD

You can get better speakers like the Logitech M-30 (2.4k) or Altec Lansing MX5021 (6k) if you want. You can even opt for 5.1 setups like Philips MMS460 (around 5-6k). If you need headphones, buy a pair Sony MDR-XD200. You can get better mouses like Logitech MX518 (1.7k) or Logitech G5 (around 4K).

omg

Yes it is. It might go upto 48k but thats ok.

AMD is not a good option RIGHT NOW. It might be a good option with their soon to be launched Deneb.

i7 proccys are the fastest proccys in the market but they cost a bomb. Its a strict no-no for anyone under a 65-70k budget.

The difference between HD4850 and HD4870 is HUGE. HD4870 is around 45-50% faster. But it costs around 16-17k.

Everything he quoted is so nice go for it !!

one thing E8400 would be better instead of Q8200 , but choose urself E8400 is dual core & Q8200 is quad core

AMD is now good with Phenom 2 but cost around 12K above

Corei7 is wonderful & fastgood proccy , but sure u should have 40K for proccy+mobo+RAM

New System for about 60-62K​

Hey guys,

I'm purchasing a new system for 60-62K. I'll be buying it from Nehru Place, New Delhi..

I've made some choices. Plz tell me the best combo out of them.
Also if you can quote the prices it'd be a lot easier for me to decide.

PLUS:- I'm highly confused b/w C2D E8400, C2Q Q6600 & C2Q Q8200! Plz help me selct among these. I'd be gaming a lot + very little of movie ripping.

I know that today's games mostly utilize 2 cores, but shall I invest in C2Q for future games which may utilize 4 cores?? Will my investment be worth it??

Anyways here are my choices----

* E8400/Q6600/Q8200 (maybe Q9400 if it fits into budget)
* Asus P5Q-Pro/MSI P45 Platinum
* Zotac GeForce 9800 GTX AMP (based on Digit review)/Palit HD 4870(again if it fits into budget)
* CM Elite 330/Zebronics Antibiotic
* CM Extreme Power 600W
* Dell 2008WFP/Samsung 2053BW/Samsung 953BW
* Corsair 2x2GB RAM
* Seagate 500GB (32MB)
* Microsoft KB+Mouse
* Altec Lansing 5.1 VS-3251E (based on Digit review)
* Samsung DVD-RW (though Digit has recommended it, but shall I go for it!)
* APC 600VA UPS (Is 600VA necessary or 500VA enough?)

DO qoute the prices my dear friends. I'll be bying this in the last week of January...

For a 19'' monitor HD4870 is surely a overkill as 4850 can do great at that resolutions i.e 1440x900..

but whats the price difference between both?




btw, i live in bangalore,, anyone know a good dealer i can purchase my stuff from? and is there any good website i can buy my pc from, which is reliable, stocks the latest hardware?

Go for gigabyte board which will be the best for the corei7

MSi board on X58 platinum is good but if u worth it go for ECLIPSE board

ATI-crossfire mailnly comes with 8X some board , if it is 16X then it will be much costly

MSI eclipse board comes with 16X cross fire

Go for HD 4850 crossfire

Nice. Dont listen to them. Tell them that it's my money and I want to buy 'bad' and 'waste' stuff :D. That is one of the best LCDs in the market. And if they are telling that Palit does not sell HD4850 in India then please divert them to this forum as almost everyone who has a HD4850 is from Palit.
